yea the plants are looking happy. good job
Thanks CD! Threw it in my notes! Got something similar by uncle ben.man everything looks great there bro, real nice!! keep it up. heres a link with pics that shows every step of the way. collecting pollen and how to use it good stuff.
Some sexy plants you have there, its been a while since I've seen them

Thanks guys! Just to clear it up though them plants are long gone in the HH and SCxNL pictures. I was just showing each side of the HH X SCxNL.your mother is looking like mini monster bush . keep it up bro, i'll rep when I can.
YA this is what I wish I could be doing. Taking clones marking them when growing there parents, growing them out completely. Picking the Best Pheno's maybe two females and one male. and breed with the clones. Do it again for the F3's then just inbreed those.i would prolly do a big seed run and get the 50 or so seeds u need to find ur magic. i would make as many as i could. without hurting your neccecary yields. this is what i plan on doing with my cheese backcross'
If all works out shout be like a mini transplant!I think i will try root pruning soon
i have tried the root cloning with no success. but i didnt prep and monitor properly, just kinda threw some roots in the dirt and put in high humidity. didnt check them enough. I have read a couple threads from some that have had success. but with a patty as big as you have it may work, or work faster. especially if you give it some TLC.I still got the little patty lol. You have seen sprouts come up? The next thing I want to try is MRT I think its called or something? Multiple Root somehting...It where you plant a branch of the plant like into the soil. Know what I'm talking about?
Actually more like....you got a mother...instead of cutting the branch off you trim top and place it into the soil giving you multiple root spots. I'll try and find a link on here.i have tried the root cloning with no success. but i didnt prep and monitor properly, just kinda threw some roots in the dirt and put in high humidity. didnt check them enough.

i think i have heard about the branch cloning. i guess you could clone just about any part of any plant given the right conditions and health of the plant.
How to mrs a plant
OK guys just in case you are new or have absolutely no clue what im talking about im gonna toss this one out there for the people in the cheap seats...
you keep hearing me and JumboSwisher talking about MRSing a plant and how it increases yield.. here is the basics...the only catch is you have to know how to clone a little (don't really have to be good at it really) and you have to have the guts to cut up your plant (not really cut it up but you will get the gist shortly)
MRS stands for Multiple Rooting Sites
you will be basically creating a entirely stand alone rooting structure and feeding system for your plant which will supplement the plant in such a way as to allow it to constantly run with its nutrient uptake going full throttle 24/7 (this will also help with the metabolizing of micro nutes and allow more of them to enter the system also just by design)
all you have to do is break out your rooting hormone and your scissors and pick a bottom branch that is nice and fat and low hanging ... something that would normally make a killer clone
now we are going to sacrifice this future monster clone for the sake of the plant..
you take this branch and instead of clipping a few nodes back and then using it to clone ...you cut off the end of it creating the same 45 degree angle you would normally make on a clone and scar it the same as a clone also... just like its the end of a clone getting ready to put it in your clone box or growing medium
you will now have a branch with a clone end sticking out where the bud site would normally be...
now the same as cloning you need to wet it and dip it in rooting hormone ( powder .. gel ... whatever)
and you will want to take this butchered branch and put it at least a inch into the soil below the plant bending it down into the dirt and making sure it wont pop back out again
what you have just done was make a alternate rooting site for the plant and as soon as it takes hold in about a week or 10 days you will see a sudden burst of vigor out of your plant and you will want to cut your nutes back to half strength
this is the only drawback and one of the major money savers for the high priced nutrient buying crowd out there...
with twice the rooting zone now occupying the pot it is utilizing more of the soil mass and also pulling out locked out nutrients the original root structure couldn't hope of getting so it will fill the plants gas tanks up pretty quickly and will also utilize the new incoming nutrients on a much more efficient scale which makes for less nutes left in the soil ... less nutes needed to maintain the plant at peek... and a plant that is getting just as much as it can handle on a full time basis increasing yield to huge potential...
all i can say is try it ... buy all means prove me wrong if you can... i have been using this technique for about 2 years now since i thought it up in a stoned stupor one night while taking clones and it has not failed me yet
Peace ... Out !!
